I too subscribed for the trial period. Let's see how it works out. I am more interested in the archives. But disappointed to see that not all race replays are available for certain seasons.

Bit the bullet and took the plan for 29.99. And casting to TV is the next headache.. Laptop with HDMI cable might fare better i feel. BTW in which app motogp is telecast anyone knows? Last year it was in disovery+ now it seems changed

Oh, which season's races are missing? I used to download race reviews/replays of the golden 2000-2008 era through torrents and have quite a few (mostly ITV/BBC broadcasts). Really wanted to dig deeper in the 2002-2005 seasons when the V10 cars were the lightest and fastest! The amazing MSC Vs RAI Vs MON Vs ALO rivalry.

I had infact renewed hotstar in December, anywho since I am quite invested in F1 I bought a yearly subscription to F1TV Pro, will see how it fares, if next season there isn't an cheaper alternative I would probably quit F1.

Checked for 2000 to 2003 seasons so far. They seem to have only 3 to 5 full race replays available.

On TV, Hotstar had no frame drops and jittery streaming, compared to what I am experiencing in the live sessions of Bahrain on F1TV.

Noticed that it's more to do when you touch any app functions it will behave badly. If you just start the live streaming and leave it be it works well

Thanks for your note. FOllowed this strategy. Watched the FP1 today and its amazing.
Not sure how to stop subscription though.

This tracker makes the purchase of the app sort of worth it!

First time using F1 TV Pro,and I'm impressed. The driver onboard cameras and team radios make it a different experience. If you watch on your laptop and have a monitor, install the F1 multiiviewer app which is simply outstanding.

And you still have access to the international commentary,so you don't miss Crofty and Martin Brundle.

According to Ian Holmes – Director of Media Rights and Content Creation at Formula 1, local broadcasters in India are more interested in broadcasting cricket like IPL and are not interested to broadcast in F1 but he did not rule out finding a local broadcaster in India interested to broadcast F1 as he thinks that India is a big market but till that time F1 TV is the only option to watch the races.

Missing the Sky commentators, these resident F1 chaps are not doing justice to the live streaming experience

Press the center button and switch to international for Brundle / Crofty commentary.

I was missing Brundle and Crofty, although Crofty makes a lots of mistakes, he has the energy to channelize to the viewers too. Then realized that we have International option, and switched there immediately.

I am on trial period and my initial impression on the app is good. I’m following live stream on big TV and live timings on phone app. Not much interested in onboard cameras. Live gps tracker will be useful during the race.

Will decide whether to subscribe fully based on main race. The pecking order remains same as last year with Redbull and Ferrari leading the pack and the surprise pack is the Aston Martin.

I'm watching on Fire stick, will try and see if it works tomm. Thanks a ton though

I know there is a different thread for Live F1 screening. But since this is active, I would like to share this for F1 enthausiasts from Bombay who dont have F1 access at home. It really sucks that Star Sports & Hotstar have stopped F1 broadcasting. It was fun watching F1 on my 55 inch Panasonic plasma screen.

To watch F1 at home now, I'll have to buy new SMART Tv

I'm still searching for places which have live F1 screening somewhere in central Bombay, but unable to find one.
